Moment of Clarity

It's hard to believe the sky really can look that beautiful. When I saw the thumbnail, I assumed it must have been some kind of photomanipulation; but after reading your comment I realised I was wrong; this is a straight photo.

Considering you must have had to have taken this through those double layer areoplane windows, the clarity is almost flawless; I think I can only spot a slight reflection in the top right corner, and even then it's hard to tell if not actually part of the clouds.

There is extreme depths in this photo, such as the bottom right where there is a faraway cloud visible through a gap in the closer clouds, as well as a balanced contrast of light and dark which I feel is what makes this photo a step above the rest.

It's what I would describe as a heavenly, peaceful photo; I'm glad you were in the right place at the right time to capture the sky as it is.
